Steady-State Creep of Asphalt Concrete
Applied Sciences, 2017 This paper reports the experimental investigation of the steady-state creep process for fine-grained asphalt concrete at a temperature of 20 ± 2 °С and under stress from 0.055 to 0.311 MPa under direct tension and was found to occur at a constant rate ...

Nanomaterials, 2022 In this work, we examine how strain exerted on individual ZnO nanorods (NRs) can influence the fluorescence signals that are emitted from fluorophore molecules and subsequently coupled into and guided along the NR.

Mortality among Patients Admitted to Strained Intensive Care Units [PDF]
American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2013 Abstract Rationale The aging population may strain intensive care unit (ICU) capacity and adversely affect patient outcomes. Existing fluctuations in demand for ICU care offer an opportunity to explore such relationships. Objectives

Measurements of Strain-Rate Distributions on Material After Shpb Impact
Engineering Transactions, 2014 We have proposed a sophisticated novel method of the SHPB experiment to measure the local strain-rate distributions on a surface of the specimen by using mechanoluminescent materials combined with a high-speed camera and an image intensifier.

Manipulating fluorescence intensity with mechanical strains
Materials Research Express, 2015 In this paper we show that the fluorescence of rhodamine 6G (R6G) can be manipulated by applying mechanical strains to gold nanoparticles (GNs) sandwiched in graphene/GNs/polydimethylsiloxane (graphene/GNs/PDMS) structure. The fluorescence intensity of R6G on the graphene/GNs/PDMS sample shows a gradual increase with the mechanical strain. However, the

Indicators of intensive care unit capacity strain: a systematic review [PDF]
Critical Care, 2018 Abstract Background Strained intensive care unit (ICU) capacity represents a fundamental supply-demand mismatch in ICU resources. Strain is likely to be influenced by a range of factors; however, there has been no systematic evaluation of the spectrum of measures that may indicate strain on ICU capacity.

Development of strain gages to analyze the stress intensity factor of a crack tip
Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015 There are currently one or two kinds of strain gages to measure the stress intensity factor. It might not be sometimes easy to analyze the stress intensity factor with those gages.
